Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
..trying to stay at the same place for a while :-)
ABOUT ME
Sometimes I am shocked about how much I have already experienced in my short life! However I still think that life offers so much more and I have lust for life. I just came back from a 6 month trip to Central America where I amongst others taught little children English as a volunteer - an experience that has shocked, surprised and positively inspired me, an experience that I dont want to miss in my life anymore. And I know that CS has influenced me and my life's path. After 3 years of travelling, I hurled myself into the world of a new job and daily routine and now I am hosting people at my house in Germany.
PHILOSOPHY
Happiness is just real when shared!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
